Jump to first unread post in a forum topic

Login / Search

I was wondering if it's possible to modify the forum template so that when a user clicks on a topic it automatically jumps to the first unread message on that topic rather than the user having to scroll through posts and pages.

I know I can just add "#first_unread" at the end of the topic URL but what template should I edit to have that permanently on every forum in my site?

It is probably achievable by editing something, somewhere, but it is not something I've thought about. Clicking the title gets you the whole thread, which is something I prefer when I am searching for something on a forum (any forum), so I'm sorry I can't help you any further with this one.
